Abstract
A multiband antenna for mounting on glass for an automotive vehicle window is disposed around the periphery of the window to provide a long length for the AM antenna. A series capacitor decouples one end of the AM monopole antenna from ground. The capacitive element acts as a short circuit at FM frequencies to facilitate operation of the antenna as a dipole for FM signals. A pair of inductive elements is connected in series with the antenna radiating element to effectively trim the length of the antenna to a resonant length for FM frequencies.
